Praying For Our Daily Bread

 There have been dozens of "mystery fires" at major food processing plants this year.  We know what this is, they are trying to create crisis everywhere from starting WW3 in Ukraine to artificially driving up fuel prices which also drive up food prices to sabotaging food processing plants which also drives up food prices, they are desperate to create their "new order."  Oh yes lets not forget about the weekly mass shootings that are taking place now "mysteriously" coinciding with everything else that is happening so they can remove resistance to their takeover.

This is what happens when people kick God out of their cities, counties, states and nation but we are way beyond that now.  "They" know their time is short so they are pushing on the accelerator to create as much "kill steal and destroy" as possible in the shortest amount of time.  This is where we who pray step into the gap.  Does the world deserve this pain, punishment and distress?  Yes, it absolutely does but the catch is we who do not belong to this world and do not conform to the ways of this world are living in the midst of this pain, punishment and distress that we never asked for.  We need to pray for our food supply, water supply, fuel supplies, electricity supplies, internet supply and everything else that may not be on this list that prevents this world from devolving into chaos on a day to day basis.

Some people throw their hands in the air like there is nothing they can do and they may be right if they are not believers.  We do believe and we can pray which means we can do something about everything.  Please join me in daily prayer that all of our needs are met according to our Fathers riches and glory instead of the poverty death and distress the enemy and his servants want to inflict on us.

Phil 4:19

And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.

Let us also pray that the sword they have drawn to slay us will pierce their own hearts:

Ps 37

12The wicked plot against the righteous

and gnash their teeth at them;

13but the Lord laughs at the wicked,

for he knows their day is coming.

14The wicked draw the sword

and bend the bow

to bring down the poor and needy,

to slay those whose ways are upright.

15But their swords will pierce their own hearts,

and their bows will be broken.

Ps 35

4May those who seek my life

be disgraced and put to shame;

may those who plot my ruin

be turned back in dismay.

5May they be like chaff before the wind,

with the angel of the Lord driving them away;

6may their path be dark and slippery,

with the angel of the Lord pursuing them.

7Since they hid their net for me without cause

and without cause dug a pit for me,

8may ruin overtake them by surprise—

may the net they hid entangle them,

may they fall into the pit, to their ruin.

9Then my soul will rejoice in the Lord

and delight in his salvation.

10My whole being will exclaim,

“Who is like you, Lord?

Make no mistake the psycopaths who are running this world at the moment are trying to finish what they started with their plandemic.  It always comes back to the same things: kill, steal, destroy.

John 10:10

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.

We need to join forces in prayer and focus on the solution.  The problems have become so overwhelming its silly to focus one additional moment on them.  Our solution is in Christ, in the Word of God, in the promises, in faith, hope and love.  When we who believe and pray are removed from this earth then the enemy will have his day.  Until that time he has a major problem which is the Restrainer which we are part of.  You can believe that every prayer offered in faith based on the promises is a major force of Restrain on the enemy and his servants.

We know what they are trying to do they arent even trying to hide it anymore but our Lord has not approved their timeline.  The Retrainer is still in place.  The Church which is the living organic body of Christ Jesus is still on this earth.  The man of sin who will be accompanied by satanic signs and wonders has not been allowed to appear yet.  In other words, the enemy has jumped ahead of the starting gun (again) and our job is to pray him and his servants back in their place until our Lord determines they have their time.

The enemy would love for you to believe there is nothing that can be done about their current attack on humanity.  Nothing could be further from the truth.  Fight the good fight of faith.  Fast, pray, hold onto the promises and lets see what happens :)

Glory to God

Grace and Peace

Trying to Start the Tribulation

 "They" are trying to start the tribulation through various means like starving us to death, poisoning us to death, killing through war, killing stealing and destroying through "build back better" etc.  But guess what?  "They" do not get to choose when the tribulation starts.  The Lord alone determines 1.  When the Restrainer will be removed leading to 2. arrival of the man of sin which leads to 3.  their new world order and the 7 years known as the tribulation. 

Thats the good news, there is still the powerful working of restraint in the midst of the evil in this world doing its best to kill us all.  The bad news is there have been many iterations of this in the past/world wars etc that cause mass death/starvation/kill/steal/destroy scenarios for alot of people.

There is nothing new under the sun:

Ecc 1:9

What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun.

What are we to do in such dark days?  1.  Realize this is not new (refer to Ecc 1:9 above).  Also to refer to David's situation a couple thousand years ago here:

Ps 40

1I waited patiently for the LORD;
he inclined to me and heard my cry.
2He drew me up from the pit of destruction,
out of the miry bog,
and set my feet upon a rock,
making my steps secure.
3He put a new song in my mouth,
a song of praise to our God.
Many will see and fear,
and put their trust in the LORD.

4Blessed is the man who makes
the LORD his trust,
who does not turn to the proud,
to those who go astray after a lie!
5You have multiplied, O LORD my God,
your wondrous deeds and your thoughts toward us;
none can compare with you!
I will proclaim and tell of them,
yet they are more than can be told.

6In sacrifice and offering you have not delighted,
but you have given me an open ear.^a
Burnt offering and sin offering
you have not required.
7Then I said, “Behold, I have come;
in the scroll of the book it is written of me:
8I delight to do your will, O my God;
your law is within my heart.”

9I have told the glad news of deliverance^b
in the great congregation;
behold, I have not restrained my lips,
as you know, O LORD.
10I have not hidden your deliverance within my heart;
I have spoken of your faithfulness and your salvation;
I have not concealed your steadfast love and your faithfulness
from the great congregation.

11As for you, O LORD, you will not restrain
your mercy from me;
your steadfast love and your faithfulness will
ever preserve me!
12For evils have encompassed me
beyond number;
my iniquities have overtaken me,
and I cannot see;
they are more than the hairs of my head;
my heart fails me.

13Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me!
O LORD, make haste to help me!
14Let those be put to shame and disappointed altogether
who seek to snatch away my life;
let those be turned back and brought to dishonor
who delight in my hurt!
15Let those be appalled because of their shame
who say to me, “Aha, Aha!”

16But may all who seek you
rejoice and be glad in you;
may those who love your salvation
say continually, “Great is the LORD!”
17As for me, I am poor and needy,
but the Lord takes thought for me.
You are my help and my deliverer;
do not delay, O my God!

Nothing new under the sun, David says evils beyond number surround him and the wicked are trying to kill him.  Sound familiar?  What the Lord has counseled the servant who writes to you today with is:

1.  These things remain:  faith, hope, love

1 Cor 13:13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

and

2.  Phil 4:8

4Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice. 5Let your reasonableness^d be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand; 6do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

8Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. 9What you have learned^e and received and heard and seen in me—practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you.

In other words focus on the solution not the problem.  We are well aware of the problem.  Once you are aware of the problem (1%) of your time/effort, spend the other 99% of your time and effort on the solutions which are all in the Book of Answers also known as the Bible and the Word of God which is The Lord our God Jesus Christ:

1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2He was in the beginning with God. 3All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4In him was life,^a and the life was the light of men. 5The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

6There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7He came as a witness, to bear witness about the light, that all might believe through him. 8He was not the light, but came to bear witness about the light.

9The true light, which gives light to everyone, was coming into the world. 10He was in the world, and the world was made through him, yet the world did not know him. 11He came to his own,^b and his own people^c did not receive him. 12But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God, 13who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God.

14And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son^d from the Father, full of grace and truth. 15(John bore witness about him, and cried out, “This was he of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me ranks before me, because he was before me.’”) 16For from his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace.^e 17For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. 18No one has ever seen God; the only God,^f who is at the Father’s side,^g he has made him known.

This world is in serious trouble for a reason.  They rejected the Creator and are now reaping the consquences.  We on the other hand have not rejected our Creator.  Remember this:

Isa 3:10

10Tell the righteous that it shall be well with them,
for they shall eat the fruit of their deeds.
11Woe to the wicked! It shall be ill with him,
for what his hands have dealt out shall be done to him.

We need to stay in a mental headspace of faith, hope and love.  Our enemies will destroy themselves with their own wickedness.  They will reap what they have sown.  When all of their frauds, lies, killing, stealing and destroying come home to roost it will be a dark day for them indeed and be assured this is all baked into the cake.  If you want to be encouraged that the wicked will get away with nothing and the righteous will be rewarded read Ps 37:

1Fret not yourself because of evildoers;
be not envious of wrongdoers!
2For they will soon fade like the grass
and wither like the green herb.

3Trust in the LORD, and do good;
dwell in the land and befriend faithfulness.^b
4Delight yourself in the LORD,
and he will give you the desires of your heart.

5Commit your way to the LORD;
trust in him, and he will act.
6He will bring forth your righteousness as the light,
and your justice as the noonday.

7Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him;
fret not yourself over the one who prospers in his way,
over the man who carries out evil devices!

8Refrain from anger, and forsake wrath!
Fret not yourself; it tends only to evil.
9For the evildoers shall be cut off,
but those who wait for the LORD shall inherit the land.

10In just a little while, the wicked will be no more;
though you look carefully at his place, he will not be there.
11But the meek shall inherit the land
and delight themselves in abundant peace.

12The wicked plots against the righteous
and gnashes his teeth at him,
13but the Lord laughs at the wicked,
for he sees that his day is coming.

14The wicked draw the sword and bend their bows
to bring down the poor and needy,
to slay those whose way is upright;
15their sword shall enter their own heart,
and their bows shall be broken.

16Better is the little that the righteous has
than the abundance of many wicked.
17For the arms of the wicked shall be broken,
but the LORD upholds the righteous.

18The LORD knows the days of the blameless,
and their heritage will remain forever;
19they are not put to shame in evil times;
in the days of famine they have abundance.

20But the wicked will perish;
the enemies of the LORD are like the glory of the pastures;
they vanish—like smoke they vanish away.

21The wicked borrows but does not pay back,
but the righteous is generous and gives;
22for those blessed by the LORD^c shall inherit the land,
but those cursed by him shall be cut off.

23The steps of a man are established by the LORD,
when he delights in his way;
24though he fall, he shall not be cast headlong,
for the LORD upholds his hand.

25I have been young, and now am old,
yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken
or his children begging for bread.
26He is ever lending generously,
and his children become a blessing.

27Turn away from evil and do good;
so shall you dwell forever.
28For the LORD loves justice;
he will not forsake his saints.
They are preserved forever,
but the children of the wicked shall be cut off.
29The righteous shall inherit the land
and dwell upon it forever.

30The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom,
and his tongue speaks justice.
31The law of his God is in his heart;
his steps do not slip.

32The wicked watches for the righteous
and seeks to put him to death.
33The LORD will not abandon him to his power
or let him be condemned when he is brought to trial.

34Wait for the LORD and keep his way,
and he will exalt you to inherit the land;
you will look on when the wicked are cut off.

35I have seen a wicked, ruthless man,
spreading himself like a green laurel tree.^d
36But he passed away,^e and behold, he was no more;
though I sought him, he could not be found.

37Mark the blameless and behold the upright,
for there is a future for the man of peace.
38But transgressors shall be altogether destroyed;
the future of the wicked shall be cut off.

39The salvation of the righteous is from the LORD;
he is their stronghold in the time of trouble.
40The LORD helps them and delivers them;
he delivers them from the wicked and saves them,
because they take refuge in him.

The Lord laughs at the wicked because He knows their day is coming.....Glory to God
